In 2026, HAYLION marks its 10th anniversary. Over the past decade, the global shift toward electrified public transport has evolved from pioneering trials into an irreversible historical trend. What began as a technology firm focused on intelligent transportation has grown into a comprehensive solutions provider spanning both mobility and energy sectors. Standing at this new starting point, HAYLION anchors its strategy in “Transport-Energy Intelligent Computing”, deepening its engagement in the vast landscape of urban green mobility transformation worldwide.
Today, the global energy transition is no longer in question. On the policy front, nations have outlined clear multi-energy roadmaps, with public transport leading the electrification charge. Technologically, declining battery costs, breakthroughs in range, and rapid iteration of ultra-fast charging are reshaping possibilities. In the market, expanding energy storage and steadily rising electrification rates signal robust momentum. Yet beneath these trends lies the real challenge: execution. For city authorities, operators, and investors, the question is no longer *whether* to electrify—but *how* to do so effectively. The true hurdles involve navigating systemic complexities: regulatory compliance, grid capacity constraints, financial modeling, cross-border taxation, labor frameworks, and more.
To address this, HAYLION has established Public Transport Electrification Consulting as a core business pillar, delivering decision-making support across the entire project lifecycle. Unlike generic advisory services, HAYLION’s consulting is rooted in deep operational expertise. We translate hard-won insights from managing the world’s largest electric bus fleet (Shenzhen Bus Group) and launching Hong Kong’s first and largest pure-electric taxi fleet into replicable methodologies. To us, “electrification is not merely swapping vehicles—it is rearchitecting a city’s energy ecosystem.” Our deliverables go beyond static reports; we provide integrated transport-energy solutions ready for financing and implementation.
Our service framework comprises six core modules:
1. Market Research & Competitive Analysis: Assessing entry strategies through precise urban market intelligence.
2. Charging Infrastructure Planning: Quantifying supply-demand gaps using GIS-based data analytics.
3. Site Selection & Technical Optimization: Evaluating fast charging, ultra-fast charging, V2G, and PV-storage-direct-flexible systems.
4. Investment Appraisal & Financial Modeling: Delivering IRR/ROI analysis with multi-scenario stress testing.
5. Technical Feasibility Assessment: Ensuring long-term system reliability and operational resilience.
6. Compliance, Risk Control & Implementation Roadmapping: Mitigating hidden barriers in emerging markets.
HAYLION’s competitive edge rests on three pillars:
First, 34 years of industry heritage. Dr. Hu Jianping, our founder, has been a firsthand architect of China’s bus electrification journey—our experience is forged in the field.
Second, our proprietary “Transport-Energy-Computing” integrated perspective, which synchronizes traffic flow, energy flow, and data flow on a unified platform.
Third, proprietary technological foundations. Powered by eMaaS (Energy-Mobility-as-a-Service) and EMS (Energy Management Systems), we equip our consulting with self-developed digital tools for smart operations and vehicle-grid integration.
The Damascus Electric Taxi Project in Syria stands as a testament to our capabilities. Amid dual imperatives of post-conflict reconstruction and energy transition, HAYLION delivered a feasibility study that met stringent requirements for regulatory approval and financial close—demonstrating that rigorous upfront planning is the cornerstone of success, even in complex emerging economies.
Looking ahead to the next decade, HAYLION will advance from Shenzhen onto the global stage. We will seize infrastructure renewal opportunities across the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Africa—expanding our consulting scope into integrated energy storage, carbon asset monetization, and cross-market energy arbitrage. Ultimately, we aim to crystallize a “China-rooted, globally applicable” standard system for sustainable urban mobility.
